Farewell
Afscheid
The camera probes the interior of the Sociéty Céramique in Maastricht, arguably the oldest (ceramics) factory in the Netherlands, where the toppled shelves of the abandoned storeroom once housed countless molds of now-forgotten pottery. This melancholy short was produced from offcuts captured during the NIETS IS VOOR DE EEUWIGHEID shoot. The factory has since been sadly demolished, but the short film functions not so much as a nostalgic afterthought or aesthetic urbexing avant-la-lettre, but rather a call to arms to use and work with all manner of beauty, however useless it might seem.

DestinoFilm, 2003Rated 7.2 on TMDB
Short film to a song of love lost and rediscovered, a woman sees and undergoes surreal transformations. Her lover's face melts off, she dons a dress from the shadow of a bell and becomes a dandelion, ants crawl out of a hand and become Frenchmen riding bicycles. Not to mention the turtles with faces on their backs that collide to form a ballerina, or the bizarre baseball game.
